This version of the Titan I bet they'll attempt to replace the old Titan with in BF2143 (and I bet that'll be re-titled "Battlefield 5" as well to avoid confusion, at least EA will likely pressure DICE if they don't like the idea).
The older version of the Titan didn't allow fixed-wing aircraft, this one does. With the introduction of jets into BF3 and everyone going "wowwww, coooool, jet fiiighterrrs", they'll likely keep them (but all futuristic, obviously) otherwise it'll be seen as going a step backwards. This Titan design allows fixed-wing aircraft to be able to take off unlike the last one.
The older Titan may appear in the sequel (maybe in the background, on specific maps or in the singleplayer campaign), but this will be the new, important one.
I'm pretty sure a runway is "realistically" inferior to the easily shielded hangar they have on the 2142 Titan, but I would bet you're right. Rule of cool comes first, although I would find it amusing if the runway could be strafed.
I suspect this Titan will have inferior weapons to the 2142 one, although we will see.
I doubt it will even be as EA/DICE has no plans to ever return to this game series, which is why we will keep asking, I mean this screenshot here is undeniable proof, BRING 2143.
BF2143 hints ?

BF 2143 is coming and it's gonna be a cold year. YEAH !!!
Judging by the logo in the blueprint this must be the PAC titan.
